Haku vs. the Five Elders
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit in the sky began to subside slowly after Haku pulled all the Clones into the field!
Haku, standing in the center of the area, looked at the dense crowd and the faces that resembled her.
He addressed the people below, saying, "There's no other way. I am the only one of my kind in this world. You'd better obediently offer your flesh and blood to nourish this desert!"
Suddenly, Haku stroked her chin and unconsciously said, "Why does that make me sound like a villain?"
Those Clones below Haku, after all, lack their own consciousness!
Therefore, they only have their own mission objectives in mind!
One or two of the Clones began to open their mouths and aim at Haku in the air.
Before the laser-emitting Clones could fire its laser, Haku seemed to sense something and waved her hand downwards.
Soon, the white sand beneath the Clones' feet began to churn upwards, forming tornadoes.
The Clones were originally restless have been swept into their respective tornadoes, as if pulled by an invisible force, and disappeared from the spot, leaving only swaying sand curtains and gradually calming air ripples.
Haku hovered in mid-air, her gaze deep, watching this scene with mixed feelings.
"Even if you are unconscious, I have to do this..." he muttered to himself, a hint of ruthlessness in his voice. Haku knew all too well that although these Clones resembled him, they were merely products of experimentation. Their very existence was a threat to his individuality and a potential disruption to the world order.
With the disappearance of the Clones, the space within the realm seemed to become even more empty and silent.
Haku, who has reappeared on Bullet Island, looks in the direction where Luffy and the others are!
"These Five Elders of the Heart have hatched a brilliant plan!"
While Haku was dealing with the Clones, a massive battle had broken out across Bullet Island!
Luffy and his crew have now fully engaged the Five Elders, but the situation on the ground is far from dire.
Perhaps due to using Luffy Gear Five for an extended period, Luffy's Haki, strength, and vitality have all been depleted.
If it weren't for his own companions, the Grand Fleet, the robot Emitt, Bartholomew Kuma True Body already arrived on the island to help him block the Five Elders.
He might have already been captured by the Five Elders!
Usopp is carrying Luffy on his back, constantly hiding or escaping in various places.
Zoro, a powerful fighter, was unfortunately entangled by Rob Lucci and Kaku from CP0!
Sanji was bewitched by Stussy, and the two were locked in a stalemate.
Nami, Chopper, and the Straw Hat Grand Fleet are facing off against Saint Mars, who is flying in the air!
Meanwhile, new crew member Jinbe single-handedly held off Saint Peter, who could burrow underground!
Saint Saturn and Saint Warcury also faced off against the two captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates, Dorry and Brogy, who had arrived to provide support at some unknown time.
In other words, the one who is still chasing Usopp, trying to kidnap Luffy and take him hostage, is none other than Saint Nusjuro, the most mobile of the Five Elders!
Fortunately, Brook, who was next to Usopp, was able to use the Soul Solid to block Saint Nusjuro!
Meanwhile, Emitt, the ancient robot on the island who was inexplicably awakened by the battle, has also awakened!
After learning that Luffy was the owner of the Nika Fruit, it stepped in to help block the murderous Saint Nusjuro.
Just as Luffy was exhausted and almost cornered by the Five Elders, a sudden roar came from the sky, as if even the Power of Nature were trembling in response to the course of the battle.
Among the Five Elders, the most shrewd and calculating of them all, Saint Mars, narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, a hint of seriousness flashing across his face.
"Sure enough, that unique Rumble-Rumble Fruit reappeared; it seems it's too late!"
Just a hair's breadth away, really just a hair's breadth away!
Saint Nusjuro had already caught up with Usopp and Luffy.
Just as he was about to use the First Generation Kitetsu to sever their heads!
Just as the robot Emitt was about to unleash Joy Boy Conqueror's Haki stored within Joy Boy,
A Zanpakuto, imbued with a massive amount of Conqueror's Haki, was hurled by Haku towards Saint Nusjuro's forehead!
Sensing the danger, Saint Nusjuro changed his sword stance, twisting the blade upwards at incredible speed to block Haku's Zanpakuto!
Haku moved with lightning speed, rushing from afar and leaving a trail of afterimages behind him. In an instant, he covered hundreds of meters and charged directly into the battlefield. His arrival was like a breath of fresh air in a storm, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Luffy, leave it to me!" Haku's voice was firm and powerful. He stood in front of Luffy, his eyes blazing as he stared directly at Saint Nusjuro.
At that moment, with lightning speed, he threw a punch forward!
In an instant, Saint Nusjuro felt an unparalleled force that sent him flying.
Haku's punch not only sent Saint Nusjuro flying several meters, but also created a powerful shockwave in the air, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
This strike was not only a display of power, but also a powerful declaration to everyone present.
"Are you ready to die, you five!" Haku said, looking at the Five Elders.
The Five Elders immediately abandoned their enemies and regrouped to prepare for battle.
"You... you?!" Saint Nusjuro steadied himself and looked at Haku in disbelief, a hint of astonishment and fear flashing in his eyes.
Vegapunk, who was waiting in the laboratory, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Haku's support arrive.
At the start of the massive battle, buildings on Bullet Island, as well as many important factories and experimental bases, suffered various forms of destruction.
However, before he could even relax for a moment, the monitor detected that Haku's energy levels were steadily increasing.
"Damn it, hopefully this guy will tone it down!" Vegapunk had given up and was simply giving up.
Haku's appearance surprised and delighted many.
Haku reached out and summoned the Zanpakuto that had been knocked away by Saint Nusjuro back into her hand.
Saint Mars, the most composed of the Five Elders, slowly stepped forward, his gaze sharp as a hawk's, fixed on Haku. "Young man, your power indeed exceeds our expectations, but do you think you can shake the foundations of the world single-handedly?"
Haku sneered, her Zanpakuto twirling lightly in her hand, its flashing light reflecting on her resolute face. "Foundation? The foundation you speak of is nothing but lies and oppression built upon countless innocent lives. Today, I will shatter it all!"
"Arrogant!" Saint Nusjuro roared, his figure leaping up again, the First Generation Kitetsu in his hand carrying a sharp sword aura, heading straight for Haku.
